Bono Consulting has a long history with the Park Ridge Park District. The Wildwood Nature Center is located less than a mile from our Park Ridge office!
The Park District was able to purchase a single-family home that was adjacent to the Wildwood Nature Center. The single-family home was converted into the main Nature Center and included animal displays and a room reserved for birthday parties and other events along with the animals. The Bono team designed the ADA accessible ramps leading up to the existing first floor of the home. We were able to successfully petition the MWRD to eliminate storm water detention for this project.
Bono Consulting also prepared the site engineering plans for the Park District’s Preschool Outdoor Classroom and for the Butterfly Garden. These are both in the Maine Park Leisure Center across the street from the Wildwood Nature Center.
